If I may borrow, “ My attempt to hold back my tears failed badly ...”

Thank you for sharing.

Heartbreaking. Beautiful.

One of your best, M&M. Absolutely beautiful and heartwrenching. Bravo

Wow! What a tear jerker! Great story please keep them coming!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

It will raise the voter’s score 0.25 points.

Death of a child raises it 0.50 points. I’ll have to remember that when I write my next story.

Nice story, BTW.

Damn, sad stories are not the way to begin the day. Thank you for a very touching story.

somewhere east of Omaha

This story has a touch of the last James Garner movie, The Ultimate Gift, 2007 ....

For a few short years.

Personally.

Her single mother had her at 40 yrs of age.

I visited annually.

After her mid teens she withdrew somewhat.

Then one day she became sick.

Her mother took her.to the local clinic?

They gave here an injection of some sort.

She went into shock and died.

Maybe one day post Covidiosy I can visit her mum and we can grieve together.

I had just finished a very badly written story when I read yours. Your story reminded me why I come to this site. There is a lot of dross here but gems like this one keep me coming back. Please keep writing stories that impress yourself.

Well written. It was sad, as you warned, but I enjoyed it.

I agree.

Definitely one of your bests. More. More!

Excellent story. I loved it!

There are more ways to tell a romantic tale than we generally are aware of.

This worked so very well. 5*, of course.

Masterfully written. Alas, I come here to get away from the injustice of reality.

Still, good writing is good writing.

Quite poignant gem.

Well done.

Thank you for your wonderful works.

Your writing doesn't stink, Elsa's wrong.

Damn...lump in my throat

'feelin' near as faded as my jeans'...........

Beautiful

Why, why, would little children be afflicted with cancer??! It's just too cruel!! And devastating to the Parents.

Is there a God??

Frigging allergies

Must be hay fever time again.

Damn.

I've read this many times and always get tears running down my face

Wonderful but sad.

Thank Lord for such writers!!! Immensely enjoyed it! Please keep writing!

When she said:

"If I die you can marry someone else."

I couldn't help crying

Hit really, REALLY hard. Thank you for reminding us all about humanity in an increasingly inhumain world.

Too close to comment.

Damn this is good. Brought forth more than a few tears. BardnotBard

Excellent story

To paraphrase Larry the Cable Guy,

"That's empathetic, I don't care who you are!"

It is claimed that the soul is ageless -- something to remember for the next meeting ....

Lovely story, very touching and sad. Guess I'm just a little dense because I had to go back through the story to try and figure out who Elsa was. Duh..... I'm just a tad slow I guess, but when even the grandkids are past Frozen, it took a while. Got to give this one five stars and thanks, cancer sucks.
